With a globally superior real GDP growth rate of 7% through 2025, as

projected by PricewaterhouseCoopers, Vietnam has become one of the

world’s most attractive investment environments.

09

The Fastest Growing Economy in the World

as projected by PricewaterhouseCoopers, Vietnam has become one of the world’s most attractive investment environments.

Hanoi is at the top of the list.

Home to 22 of the nation’s top 50 universities, specializing in the fields of technology, science, fine arts and medicine, Hanoi is the

largest center for higher education in Vietnam, where over 1.6 million students are educated by a faculty of 60,000. In addition,

workforce as industrialization and modernization in the region creates increasingly sophisticated jobs.

Ecopark, positioned directly in the path of this growth, engages the best of international urban planning to build upon these

principles and create a sustainable community model that will both educate and employ experts in higher-technology industries.

Set in an Ideal Location

Hung Yen ProvinceSince its establishment in 1997, the Hung Yen Province has

experienced substantial growth. Due to its location near to

the capital city of Hanoi, excellent connectivity by road, rail,

and waterway, and government initiatives to develop

modern infrastructure and industrial zones, the province has

successfully attracted over 400 industrial projects, with more

than 50 of them foreign-invested. In addition, it has quickly

become the 2nd most densely populated province in

Vietnam. Ecopark, in the heart of this rapidly developing

region, will provide an accessible and attractive solution for

suburban expansion.

Abundant Cultural & Natural Resources

Adjacent to the Red River and intersected by the gently flowing

Bac Hung Hai, Ecopark is blessed with beautiful natural vistas of

the surrounding countryside and quaint historic villages nearby,

celebrating a culture that is 4,000 years old and enticing thousands

of tourists each week.

Protecting & PreservingOur Environment

communities that care for our environment. Energy efficiency is maximized

in the design, orientation and fit-out of our buildings. Surface water

treatment occurs naturally with the aid of wetland areas. Enhanced

pedestrian connectivity will encourage reduced carbon emissions. Within

Ecopark, over 120 hectares of green and blue space will be preserved in the

most magnificently and densely landscaped communities in Vietnam.

13

A Comprehensive & FlexibleMaster Plan

As our communities grow, so will their needs. Comprehensive planning ensures

convenient access to quality services, while incorporating features that will stimulate

commerce and tourism. Flexibility accommodates change as these needs evolve in

the future, enabling us to create maximum tangible and intangible value in Ecopark.

Ecopark’s Story

with an annual population growth estimated at 3.5%,

inadequate existing infrastructure, pollution, and an

undersupply of housing are contributing factors that have

created a need for expansion and a demand for new

master-planned urban areas.

Ecopark, as the largest urban township in northern

Vietnam, is positioned to not only satisfy the housing,

infrastructure, and environmental demands of the region,

but also to develop a community with a unique identity to

provide an unprecedented quality of life to its residents.

Imagine having the opportunity, for the first time, to

escape from the endless confines of steel and concrete and

the chaotic streets of Hanoi and wake up each morning in a

verdant park, with clean streets and fresh air, without

sacrificing the proximity to the city center, convenience of

modern services and amenities, or the familiarity of cultural

traditions.

With nearly 500 hectares,

Ecopark is an entirely self-sustaining city: a place for over

100,000 residents to work, play and raise their families. It

provides an ideal mix of residential areas to accommodate

families with different needs and preferences, from quiet

gated communities, to towering high-rise condominiums

with panoramic views of the countryside. All of these

communities will be seamlessly integrated with scenic open

space and connected by a network of aesthetically pleasing

parks and pedestrian thoroughfares so that residents and

visitors may safely and comfortably move about their city.

of Ecopark enables it to

simultaneously develop into a hub for both tourism and

commerce. A multitude of destinations in the surrounding

region provide the critical mass to support a boom in

cultural and eco-tourism in and around the city. Advanced

industry in the evolving commercial district will generate

thousands of high-value jobs and create an anchor for the

community in the heart of the rapidly developing Hung Yen

flexible master plan will enable the city to develop to

consistently and effectively meet the demands of the future.

100-meter wide interprovincial highway, will funnel all of this

activity directly through the heart of Ecopark, truly

positioning the city as

a multi-functional gateway.

Within the communities, residents will benefit from quality

education for all ages, state-of-the-art medical facilities,

planning will not only add significant value to their homes,

but will also enhance their well-being. With this population

comprising a productive workforce and a strong

consumer base, investors will find ample opportunity to

add value to their businesses.

Ecopark is committed to providing the highest level of public

service to its residents at affordable costs to ensure an

community will boast over 110 hectares of “green and blue”

space, accounting for more than 22% of the total land area

and providing a peaceful, natural environment for families to

enjoy. Future residents can already feel the difference, relating

the ecological experience of Ecopark to being “immersed in

nature.” But with environmental sustainability at the core of

development, Ecopark will also be a leader in eco-friendly

initiatives, not just a city with safe neighborhoods, clean

streets and lush landscaping. Seemingly a world away from

Hanoi, yet only a 20 minute drive by car on the

interprovincial highway.

Most importantly, Ecopark is culturally relevant, which is

critical in a country steeped in rich tradition. While

incorporating innovation that will expedite modern

development in this region, it will also purposefully maintain

a distinctly Vietnamese identity, with the integration of

typical Vietnamese, Buddhist and Feng Shui design features

in the urban layout and architecture.

Ecopark is different. It serves many purposes and satisfies a

variety of needs. In Ecopark we are not just building homes;

we are constructing a new standard of living. And we are

helping our residents to achieve balance in their lives. As we

develop this city together, our firm commitment is to provide

residents with a healthier, safer, better way of living, without

making any sacrifices.

16

Building a WideVariety of Complete& Livable Communities

A healthy and balanced lifestyle breeds productivity. We provide

a broad selection of different ambiances for our residents, from

cosmopolitan living in towering high-rise condos to the luxury of

waterfront villas with civic, cultural, and commercial amenities

integrated into the communities. Tranquil green spaces provide

relaxation and pedestrian mobility.

17

Generating UniqueOpportunitiesfor Commerce

Central Business and Waterfront District

well-integrated green open spaces and a dynamic pedestrian

mall centered around a civic lake. Located 1 km from British

University Vietnam, this district will provide a perfect

platform for the development of a modern hub for

business—highlighted by an integrated research-oriented

medical community.

Ecopark’s “New Quarter”

Traditional architectural design meets modern commerce.

commercial center for enterprises of the 21st Century.

Creative Industry District

An inspiring forum for a burgeoning creative media and fine

arts community, energized by a surge of enthusiastic and

imaginative talent.
